Our Founder
Meet Shraddha
Shraddha is the creative heart behind Aeka—an artist, nature lover, and champion of slow luxury. With a background in fine arts and a lifelong passion for wildlife and wild landscapes, she hand-draws every motif before collaborating with master artisans to transform her sketches into sumptuous velvet treasures. Driven by the belief that true beauty lies in personal connection, Shraddha infuses each collection with moments of wonder and nostalgia, crafting pieces that feel like they belong to you.
"I draw what moves me — small, quiet moments from nature — and it means the world to turn them into something you can hold, use, and make your own."
– Shraddha Nair
Unbelievably Beautiful Bags
Welcome to Aeka — where quiet luxury is born from artistry, emotion, and craft. Founded by Shraddha Nair in December 2023, Aeka is a reflection of her deep love for nature and storytelling. Every design begins as a hand-drawn sketch by Shraddha, inspired by the quiet poetry of the natural world — from wildlife and wildflowers to the hidden beauty of everyday landscapes. These illustrations are then meticulously brought to life by skilled artisans on rich velvet, using time-honoured embroidery techniques.
At Aeka, we believe nature touches each of us in deeply personal ways — evoking memories, longings, and a sense of stillness that words can’t always express. Our pieces are designed with this in mind: to stir something within, to feel familiar yet special, and to quietly resonate with everyone who encounters them.
Each Aeka creation is more than a product — it is a keepsake of craftsmanship, soul, and timeless beauty.
So detailed, so breathtaking — our bags often don’t feel real at first glance. But they are. And they’re meant to be held, loved, and lived with.
